It's 1987. The surf's up, the sun's out, and high school teacher Freddy Shoop is about to have the summer of his life… until he's roped into teaching remedial English to a group of students who would rather be anywhere else. In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, Kevin, Eric, and Mark crack open Summer School, the cult classic that blends outrageous 80s comedy with a surprisingly insightful take on teaching, student motivation, and the eternal struggle between fun and responsibility. We break down what makes Mark Harmon's Mr. Shoop one of the most unexpectedly relatable teachers in movie history—does his unconventional, rule-breaking approach make him a terrible educator, or the kind of mentor students actually need? We also dive into the misfit classroom of 80s archetypes, from the horror-obsessed duo of Chainsaw and Dave to the overachieving student with test anxiety, and discuss how these characters still reflect real-world education challenges today.   Takeaways: Connecting with students has a huge impact Sometimes you need respect from students before they like you Have fun and be yourself Take the five seconds to say something individualized to a student     Connect with Eric Stoller: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/esstoller/   Connect with host, Kevin Stoller: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinstoller/     Episode 221 of the Better Learning Podcast Kevin Stoller is the host of the Better Learning Podcast and Co-Founder of Kay-Twelve, a national leader for educational furniture.

In this recast episode from July 2021, Mark talks with Marta Stoeckle, who teaches physics and other science courses outside St. Paul, Minnesota. They talk about the improvements Marta experienced in her teaching after attending a modeling workshop. This led to their discussion of Marta's research in STEM education. Finally, they talk about the new way for modelers to connect -- the AMTA Discord server. Guest Bio Marta Stoeckle Marta Stoeckle has been teaching science at Tartan High School just outside of St. Paul, Minnesota since 2009. She teaches mostly Physics and AP Physics 1, with occasional sections of other courses including basic chemistry and 9th grade physical & earth science. She is also a Ph.D. candidate in the University of Minnesota's STEM education program where she is studying how classroom experiences influence science identity, especially for underrepresented students. Marta has served on the communications committee for AMTA's board and helped get the Discord server started. Website | Twitter Highlights [10:16] Marta "Labs came up with almost every single student as something really important. What was really interesting to me is I had a lot of students who talked about the guided inquiry labs and the paradigm labs that are an important part of modeling as something that really helped them feel like a science person. And when they were able to see how the data they took led to that physics knowledge, they felt a really strong sense of ownership over their learning and really started to feel good at physics" [21:21] Marta: "I was introduced to this idea of activity before concept and then concept before vocabulary...No matter what phrasing they use to describe it, but my experience has been, especially with ELL kids and especially with kids who have learning differences, especially around reading, that's been really beneficial because by the time that we get to that technical word, they have something in their head to attach it to, instead of trying to cram in all of these complicated words before they really have any meaning."

It's the beginning of April, and with the spring air around us, it reminds me of something fresh and new, so I decided to start a new series about teaching different AP sciences. Even though in my podcast episodes, I share ideas and strategies that will benefit all classes, I get a lot of questions targeted specifically toward teaching an AP class. So, in my first episode of the series, I have guest Laura Preiser, who shares how she prepares her students for the AP exam and what changes she's made that have positively impacted them. For those who don't know, AP stands for Advanced Placement and is a course through the College Board that offers the opportunity to earn college credit if students pass the exam at the end of the year. Since that's the ultimate goal of students, Laura really relies on the various College Board resources to teach her students and prepare them for the exam. She made a new change this year with those resources that gave more time for practice and questions during class, extra review time before the exam, and increased test scores. Teaching an AP class can be intimidating, but Laura shares great advice for taking it one unit at a time and being honest with your students about where you're at. Additionally, she shares how, while preparing her students for the AP exam, she also prepares them with life skills and finding strategies that work best for them. I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Laura about all things AP Physics and know you, too, will gain perspective, knowledge, and ideas you can implement in your own classroom.  Resources Mentioned: Teach the Class ProjectFiveableNational AP Physics Teachers Facebook GroupDownload your FREE Classroom Reset ChallengeSend me a DM on Instagram: @its.not.rocket.scienceSend me an email: rebecca@itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.comFollow, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts Show Notes: https://itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.com/episode124

In this episode you will hear:   Before beginning the podcast Mark announces a blockbuster change that will change the nature of the YCBK podcast in a major way and the announcement is effective on June 1st.   Dave answers a question from a listener, why is okay for you (Dave) to go to elite schools like Harvard and Princeton and for your daughter to go to Yale, but you tell me that it doesn't matter where my kid goes to college.    (27:12) In this segment of “In the News” Mark and Dave discuss an March 17th, 2022 article by Juliana Kaplan  and Madison Hoff of Business Insider entitled, “Maryland is hiring workers without four-year college degrees to curtail its labor shortage” Mark and Dave discuss what are the implications of this change and policy and they debate, is this a good or bad thing.     (48:15)Question from a listener   I heard Rick Clark and Christoph Gutenberg talk allude to it on some podcasts but we are not getting real cut-off info. The schools want thousands of applications but also want to sort some out. I want to understand how many are 'real" applications. How many are actually making it through the AI. I think that is very important data for candidates that jumped through all the hoops for highly selective colleges   Jillion from California   Question 2   Another question, what defines rigor for AI? Is it if they take calculus and physics? If so, does it have to be AP Calc and AP Physics or are any level of those courses considered rigorous?   Jillion from California   (01:21:45) Interview-Rod Skinner, the Dean of College Counseling at Milton Academy-Topic "Why is it so much harder to get into a selective college these days"- (Part 2 of 3)   Preview-Part 2   Rod continues with his answer is to the person who says, colleges are accepting, “black and brown kids” with weaker credentials than my kid, and it isn't fair An exercise he has families to do show how hard it is for a college to select students The role athletics plays in admissions The public vs private school debate, which is better for college admissions? Rod talks about what going to college will not do for you The difference between a transactional vs development mindset What can be done to make the admissions process more accessible? The difference between the access paradigm to the selectivity paradigm The role bond ratings plays in creating the frenzy The importance of starting with “why” How a rising tide lift all boats applies to college admissions Rod talks about how to push back on a family that is focused on prestige Rod tells a powerful story from his 45th college reunion that you don't want to miss   (01:34:30) Our recommended resource for episode 226 are the four episodes the “Hold Me Back” podcast. Episodes 16-19 are all interviews with admissions leaders that I thought were excellent. The interviews are with Christof Guttentag of Duke, Rick Clark of Georgia Tech, Johnathan Burdick of Cornell and Heath Einstein of TCU.   (01:49:04) Our College Spotlight is the University of San Diego with college counselor, Sylvia Borgo  Part 2 of 2   To sign up to receive Your College-Bound Kid PLUS, our free quarterly admissions deep-dive, delivered directly to your email four times a year, just go to yourcollegeboundkid.com, and you will see the sign up on the right side of the page under “the Listen to our podcast icons”   Follow Mark Stucker on Twitter to get breaking college admission news,  and updates about the podcast before they go live.
